Very
much British cruise line with more than 150 years old tradition
in passenger vessels operation. Offering worldwide no repeating
itineraries with vast number of ports. The company is catering
mostly to British passengers, plus a considerable amount of
Americans, Australians and New Zealanders, basically people
loyal to traditional British cruising and manners. That
fact should be considered by potential crew members, as well.
Arthur Anderson, the
founder of U.K.-based P&O Cruises, came up with the concept
of cruising for pleasure about 170 years ago. The company began
in the 1880s as a combination of Orient Line and North of
Scotland, and was later taken over by P&O. In 1904, P&O
offered its its inaugural cruise holiday tour - a first
class-only cruise with shore excursions organized by Thomas
Cook. The company thrived between the World Wars and beyond.
Like most cruise lines, however, after the onset of the jet
liner - which basically trumped the need for passengers to make
a crossing in order to travel between the U.S. and Europe (and
beyond) - P&O was forced to adapt. P&O abolished the
multi-class system on its ships. It acquired Los Angeles-based
Princess Cruises in 1974 and Sitmar Cruises in 1988, which
P&O chose to merge. Even more expansion followed for its
Princess Cruises subsidiary. The mid-1990s marked a time of
radical change for P&O. The company introduced Oriana, its
first purpose-built modern cruise ship (as opposed to ocean
liner), followed by the near-identical Aurora. P&O Cruises
benefited from sister cruise line Princess Cruises a few years
later when that line's Sea Princess and Ocean Princess were
transferred; they became known as Adonia and Oceana,
respectively. In October 2000, the company underwent another
major change: P&O's parent company was acquired by Carnival
Corporation and is now known as P&O Princess Cruises. Beyond
P&O Princess U.K., other cruise lines falling under the
parent company's umbrella include P&O Cruises Australia;
Swan Hellenic Cruises; Ocean Village Cruises; and the German
A'Rosa Cruises. An appropriate short description of the company
would be something like: old money plus new money and a lot
of both...
